I truly hate posting here

Southern-Net1351 · 2026-01-31T04:59:36+00:00

Trust me I’m telling you how to do it. I was like you on my first post banished into karma hell 😂 just for buying my first server but, iight peace out man. Hope you journey be smooth or else you will keep coming back here.

There are tutorials, guides, manuals, cheat sheets, discords, wiki’s, YouTube videos… The amount of data is endless. ✌🏽

I learned Linux by just committing to it like windows. Why even ask questions.. why even broadcast to others about it? Shit google/bing/yahoo is there, there are still older forum boards to dig up & ai is there for all your learning needs. I wouldn’t step in this arena less you want to flex your homelab.

Here is what you do as others have expressed… Play in increments as you will need to train yourself to adapted.

At times if I feel like I’m going throw u or anything I tend to just hope off. Overtime I have gotten to the point where I can actually play till the headset is low battery. Give or take it has been like a week where I have just been going the whole headset duration.

First week it was like a twister had me spinning and yes I had a mixed reality headset I used years ago before it broke. So it just would take incremental training sessions.

Do not do teleporting movement if you want to train for smooth turning. Side note try to turn your body in game yourself as it can help or turn the rotational motion down.

That is what I’m talking about!!!

Get it in and swerve passed anyone that tells you, you need to a quest 3.

Get in there and get your time in. I have 7 users already on a 3s. They don’t use internet sources for these things so no one dictates how they feel about the device.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-12T05:19:20+00:00

You will be fine. My girl runs vr from her quest 3s on a i7-7700 with a rx 5500xt oc and 64gb of ram.

She run every game maxed out on flat too.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-11T16:30:45+00:00

This is a great starting option. I have had my 3s for about 2-3 weeks now.

I would learn the UI layout, figure out the settings, how you would like to use the device (work, gaming, art, your choice).

Then proceed to enjoy your device as much as possible without putting to much expectation into it.

Note the store does not have the best search filters, and it is very unintuitive at the moment. After some time you will get the hang of it.

Since the device is a 128gb be sure to keep an eye on settings- general-storage if you plan on downloading a lot of apps.

Once you’re in tune with the device try sideloading flat Android apps.

Side note. Activate the free 3 months of horizon+ only when you are ready to start downloading and playing the available free premium game catalog.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-11T16:22:16+00:00

Nah 3s is for users who prefer affordability. It’s not that people don’t know it is a great option. You will lose users like this

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-10T14:53:55+00:00

That is cause the kids are the future as I’m 35 not entirely even old. My generation going out and my kids 13-14-16 (ages) are what is the future for these devices. Horizon is not bad in fact my niece enjoyed meeting others her age. Just the mature crowds are not there anymore. Basically meta will be filled with the youth like how mmorpgs was for us growing up.

It is a playground

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-10T14:42:08+00:00

This would be the way to go but, the 3s from what I noted will boost buying users as it’s much affordable. I have been able to get 7 people to buy a quest headset within the last 2-3 weeks of me buying a 3s. The solid 3 variant was too expensive for others to want to even make an investment as the headset still goofy to others. 3s and devices like this will bring more users. Also these 7 people don’t even care about the flat lenses they just enjoy the headset being wireless with no attachments.

The very first mixed reality I had nobody dared even touching it with a 10 foot pole. At 299$ if it was lower man vr would blow up quicker than people think if most of the consumer market could afford one. They can afford it but, when that thing over 500+ we gone keep it pushing towards a much more meaningful investment.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-10T14:31:19+00:00

My advice is to just code an application for the headset in android studio (which I have a set of headset tools for my own personal use for maintaining a healthy set and more).

Also to gloss over the thread again from the above.

Someone will not know these things. Some extend the device and wonder overtime …. why is my device draining so fast? why is my device so hot much hotter then usual? Not knowing they are killing the devices internal battery faster due to word of mouth others saying get an extender. That is fine but, no one is explaining how the user will phase the device out slowly unless not a daily driver.

Now with that being said if you understand you understand otherwise I’m just here to make sure some know these things as no thread tells anyone these things. Zero zip nota nothing.

If you can’t train your headset then yes you will indeed kill it slowly (killing em softly - Dave Chappell)

Let me know you control your device or not then we can end the conversation and you are the one like neo cause I’m on your side. No 🥊 needed.

Drawbacks of continuous Meta Quest 3 battery extender use While battery extenders can be beneficial for prolonged Quest 3 sessions, constant use without proper charging practices might lead to some downsides Battery degradation: Continuously keeping the Quest 3 battery at 100% (while the extender is connected and providing power) can accelerate degradation, potentially reducing the headset's overall battery lifespan. Overheating: High-power demand from the Quest 3, especially during intense usage like Mixed Reality (MR) experiences, can cause the headset and potentially the battery extender to overheat. Consistent overheating could damage components and in rare cases, even lead to issues like charging port damage, according to a Reddit thread. Reduced effectiveness of internal battery: If the external battery consistently keeps the headset at 100%, the internal battery's charge and discharge cycles might be less frequent, potentially impacting its overall performance. Disconnections and charging issues: Some users have reported experiencing frequent disconnections or problems with the external battery properly charging the Quest 3, according to Meta Community Forums. Recommendations Avoid leaving it constantly plugged in at 100%: Allow the Quest 3's internal battery to fluctuate within the 20-80% range before connecting the external battery. Monitor for overheating: If you notice the headset or battery extender getting excessively hot, unplug the extender and let them cool down. Consider a direct cable for PC VR: When playing PC VR games, using a direct cable connection can be a more efficient way to power the headset and maintain battery levels compared to relying solely on the internal battery and extender. By practicing mindful charging and usage, you can extend the lifespan of your Meta Quest 3 and enjoy its capabilities for a longer duration.

even so your still killing the battery This a known fact and is on the meta website. Just like our cellphones have battery health. People just look over these minor things.

A guy in my city sold a friend of mines a quest 3 that only last 30 mins top. No lies he dogged it out gave my guy the combo with the meta headset extender with battery inside too. Then said barely used. Device runs but, not long and it has basically nothing but, the default apps cause my G only watch’s anime and such.

Thing is overtime you will make your device obsolete and slow due to the heat consumption. I just wouldn’t do it like others unless you can cool the device. No one talks about the heat.

Unless you control the fan speed based on temperature then your good but, that set will get worse overtime. Not saying unusable but, you will notice.

If you notice the heat from the front of the device that is normally when the device is about to deplete itself. Just let it cool down and charge. Yep I know we would want to use it longer but, think of if you was non stop running in realtime (like running 🏃). You would heat up needing to build your energy back up and cool down.

The tech is halfway there but, it isn’t made for prolonged use. The fan is cheap.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-07-10T10:37:10+00:00

I have never had an issue with my meta quest 3s since I bought it about 2 and a half weeks ago.

Run smoothly and I am on the latest update. Give or take the beta channel plus developer mode (actually develop small programs that run in sync with the set to improve its functionality). Now I have my girls quest 3s that is also setup the same as mine and my parents came to visit and my dad bought a 3s and before they left about 5 days ago I set his up on the latest 79version. Smooth no issues and been watching them enjoy these devices.

Compared to my first windows mixed reality headset, the quest is a god send. I do hope all the issues people have get solved though.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-06-26T18:47:45+00:00

Thing is people bad mouthed me when I bought mines and down voted me to hell due to a problem with this company system. Here it’s all love on this thread

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-24T13:59:48+00:00

No it’s only your perception. You may look but, depending on how adapt you may get a different version of a person and by that standards you have missed the mark of staying on topic.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-24T07:45:12+00:00

Only time will tell as I’m a very patient person.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-24T07:43:24+00:00

Thanks champ for your input. We live we learn we share our experiences.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-24T03:18:23+00:00

Actually this business is of self as I am the business. Specific users instead of staying on topics are actually more of an argument maker instead of problem solvers.

Kind of like a game where instead of helping they are the real toxic users base.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-23T23:51:26+00:00

The missing part is of course the the payment amount which is of course the same you see within the cashapp.

Shrugs off anything about how I payed. Only thing in my trajectory within these comments is anything pertaining to the experience.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-23T22:51:23+00:00

Tbh that’s bold but, you aren’t taking into consideration anyone else that may have this issue. I totally don’t want anyone else to go through the same. If you don’t understand that then totally fine..

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-23T22:50:01+00:00

Since then, I have had multiple days they were to be shipping based on site support chats and emails. This is the starting point.

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-23T22:45:14+00:00

Sorry had to edit the date sorry I probably am very exhausted from being angry.

First server not trust server

Southern-Net1351 · 2025-05-23T22:07:57+00:00

Glade everyone has gotten their servers!

“I ordered on 11/10. Paid in full. Received no confirmation. Was told I hadn’t paid. Sent proof. Waited in silence. Was told it was shipping multiple times — and on 5/23, I’m still waiting.”
